CITY OF LODI COUNCIL COMMUNICATION
AGENDA TITLE: Hutchins Street Square Theatre Chairs
MEETING DATE: Wednesday, May7 , 1997
PREPARED BY: Charlene J. Lange, Community Center Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Acknowledge the fund raising efforts of the Hutchins Street Square Foundation to build and
furnish the new performing arts and conferencing center.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
One of the fund raising opportunities at the Square is the sale of the theatre seats in the new
performing arts theatre now under construction.
"Every seat in our new theatre is in the first class section", according to our architect Tim
Mattheis of Wenell, Mattheis and Bowe Architects. There are nearly 800 seats to sell for a
$250.00 contribution to the Foundation.
Contributions are being solicited to purchase the seat of your choice featuring engraved armrests
personalized with your name. The theatre chairs are burnished red mohair covered seats
surrounded by a mahogany wood back. Individuals who purchase seats are invited to a one-time
"Wiggle In Your Seat" recognition party with entertainment and a photograph of the friends of
Hutchins Street Square enjoying their first class position.
Of course, we only guarantee that you can sit in your special seat that one night. This effort is a
fund raiser to help cover construction costs.
FUNDING:
None.
